Upcoming shows
The most recent R5 Productions newsletter has been hanging out in my email inbox for a while, and there’s some really great stuff coming up. These shows have the added bonus of being held, for the most part, at the Unitarian Church, which was voted the best place to see live indie music in the city. As a member of that church, it makes me proud.
